Though Hobbits do not normally live nearly 600 years, his consumption of the Ring and his descent into the mountain with its unnatural power allowed him to survive until 3019, when he fell to his death, fittingly with his precious Ring, into the fires of Mount Doom. Born in TA 2430, Gollum’s original name was Sméagol, descended from one of the earliest Hobbit races, the Stoors. He is acknowledged by many of the characters in Tolkien’s The Hobbit and especially, The Lord of the Rings, and even more are vaguely aware of his presence, but he creeps across Middle-earth in secret, perpetually hunting in the darkness for his precious. Gollum is a forgotten and broken tangle of destructive behavior.
